3.1 Instructions
3.2 First use
1. Remove any protective film from the
outside or inside of the appliance,
including accessories.
2. Remove any labels (apart from the
technical data plate) from the
accessories and from the oven cavity.
3. Remove and wash all the appliance
accessories (see 4 Cleaning and
maintenance).
4. Heat the empty oven at the maximum
temperature to burn off any residues left
by the manufacturing process.
High temperature inside the oven
during use
Danger of burns
• Keep the oven door closed during
cooking.
• Protect your hands wearing heat
resistant gloves when moving food
inside the oven.
• Do not touch the heating elements inside
the oven.
• Do not pour water directly onto very hot
trays.

3.3 Using the accessories
Racks and trays
Racks and trays have to be inserted into the
side guides until they come to a complete
stop.
• The mechanical safety locks that prevent
the rack from being taken out
accidentally have to face downwards
and towards the oven back.
Tray rack
The tray rack has to be inserted into the tray.
In this way fat can be collected separately
from the food which is being cooked.
Gently insert racks and trays into
the oven until they come to a stop.
Clean the trays before using them
for the first time to remove any
residues left by the manufacturing
process.

Use
51
EN
Cover and pizza plate (on some models
only)
With the oven cold, remove the cover from
the bottom and insert the pizza plate. Make
sure that the plate is inserted correctly in the
recess provided.
For cooking, use the special function
.
Pizza spatula (on some models only)
Always hold the pizza spatula by the
handle to put food in and take it out of the
oven. You are advised to dust the steel
surface lightly with flour to make it easier to
slide fresh products on and off, as they
could stick to the steel due to their moisture
content.
Improper use
Risk of damage to surfaces
• Do not use the pizza plate other than as
described, for example do not use it on
gas or glass ceramic hobs or in ovens
which are not designed for this purpose.
• If you like oil on your pizza, it is best to
add it after removal from the oven since
oil stains on the pizza plate are unsightly
and may reduce its efficiency.
• If the pizza plate is not in use, cover the
bottom of the oven with the cover
provided.

Functions list
Eco
The combination of the fan and the
circulaire heating element, in ECO
mode, is particularly indicated for
cooking on a single shelf, with
reduced power consumption.
Static
As the heat comes from above and
below at the same time, this system
is particularly suitable for certain
types of food. Traditional cooking,
also known as static cooking, is
suitable for cooking just one dish at
a time. Perfect for all types of roasts,
bread and cakes and in any case
particularly suitable for fatty meats
such as goose and duck.
Grill
The heat coming from the grill
element gives perfect grilling results
above all for thin and medium
thickness meat and, in combination
with the rotisserie (where fitted),
gives the food an even browning at
the end of cooking. Perfect for
sausages, spare ribs and bacon.
This function enables large
quantities of food, particularly meat,
to be grilled evenly.
Lower element
The heat coming just from the
bottom allows you to complete the
cooking of foods that require a
higher bottom temperature, without
affecting their browning. Perfect for
cakes, pies, tarts and pizzas.
Fan assisted
The operation of the fan, combined
with traditional cooking, ensures
consistent cooking even with
complex recipes. Perfect for biscuits
and cakes, even when
simultaneously cooked on several
levels. (For multiple-level cooking,
we recommend using the 2nd and
4th shelves).
Fan with grill
The air produced by the fan softens
the strong heatwave generated by
the grill, grilling perfectly even very
thick foods. Perfect for large cuts of
meat (e.g. shin of pork).
Fan + lower element
The combination of the fan with just
the lower heating element allows
cooking to be completed more
rapidly. This system is
recommended for sterilising or for
finishing off the cooking of foods
which are already well-cooked on
the surface, but not inside, which
therefore need a little more heat.
Perfect for any type of food.

Use
55
EN
Minute minder
1. Press the temperature knob once (twice if
cooking is already in progress). The
display shows and the indicator
light flashes.
2. Turn the knob to set the duration (from 1
minute to 4 hours). After a few seconds,
the indicator light stops flashing and
the countdown starts.
3. Select the required cooking function and
wait for the buzzer to sound, indicating
that the cooking time is over. The
indicator light flashes.
4. Turn the knob to select another minute
minder. Or else press the temperature
knob to stop the buzzer.
Circulaire
The combination of the fan and the
circulaire heating element
(incorporated in the rear of the
oven) allows you to cook different
foods on several levels, as long as
they need the same temperatures
and type of cooking. Hot air
circulation ensures instant and even
distribution of heat. It will be
possible, for instance, to cook fish,
vegetables and biscuits
simultaneously (on different levels)
without odours and flavours
mingling.
Turbo
The combination of fan assisted
cooking and traditional cooking
allows different foods to be cooked
on several levels extremely quickly
and efficiently, without odours and
flavours mingling. Perfect for large
volumes that call for intense
cooking.
Pizza
The operation of the fan, combined
with the grill and the lower heating
element, ensures consistent cooking
even with complex recipes. Perfect
not just for pizzas, but also for
biscuits and cakes.
This function only activates the
buzzer, without stopping cooking.
The minute minder can be
activated both during cooking and
when the appliance is in standby.
You must set the value to zero to
remove the minute minder.

duration is set, the indicator light
stops flashing and timed cooking starts.
4. At the end of the cooking time STOP
appears on the display and a buzzer
sounds that can be deactivated by
pressing the temperature knob.
Timed cooking is the function
which allows a cooking operation
to be started and then ended after
a specific length of time set by the

3.5 Cooking advice
General advice
• Use a fan assisted function to achieve
consistent cooking at several levels.
• It is not possible to shorten cooking times
by increasing the temperature (the food
could be overcooked on the outside and
undercooked on the inside).
Advice for cooking meat
• Cooking times vary according to the
thickness and quality of the food and to
consumer taste.
• Use a meat thermometer when roasting
meat, or simply press on the roast with a
spoon. If it is hard, it is ready; If not, it
needs another few minutes cooking.
Advice for cooking with the Grill and the
Fan with grill
• Meat can be grilled even when it is put
into the cold oven or into the preheated
oven if you wish to change the effect of
the cooking.
• With the Fan with grill function, we
recommend that you preheat the oven
before grilling.
• We recommend placing the food at the
centre of the rack.
Advice for cooking desserts/pastries and
biscuits
• Use dark metal moulds: They help to
absorb the heat better.
• The temperature and the cooking time
depend on the quality and consistency
of the dough.
• To check whether the dessert is cooked
right through: At the end of the cooking
time, put a toothpick into the highest point
of the dessert. If the dough does not stick
to the toothpick, the dessert is cooked.
• If the dessert collapses when it comes
out of the oven, on the next occasion
reduce the set temperature by about
10°C, selecting a longer cooking time if
necessary.
Advice for defrosting and proving
• Place frozen foods without their
packaging in a lidless container on the
first shelf of the oven.
• Avoid overlapping the food.
• To defrost meat, use the rack placed on
the second level and a tray on the first
level. In this way, the liquid from the
defrosting food drains away from the
food.
• The most delicate parts can be covered
with aluminium foil.
• For successful proving, a container of
water should be placed in the bottom of
the oven.

Use
60
To save energy
• Stop cooking a few minutes before the
time normally used. Cooking will
continue for the remaining minutes with
the heat which has accumulated inside
the oven.
• Reduce any opening of the door to a
minimum to avoid heat dispersal.
• Keep the inside of the appliance clean
at all times.
• (Where fitted) When it is not being used,
remove the pizza plate and put the
cover back in its slot.
